I just returned from Turkey moments ago, only to learn of another 6.4 magnitude earthquake which hit precisely the region I & my Humanity First team are in.💔

Though now sleeping in tents in the cold, the Humanity First remains on the ground to serve & save lives. We plan to stay as long as humanely possible. We are immensely grateful for your support to continue this critical work.❤️

Writing tip: Write what you know? Absolutely. But also write what you DON'T know.

If authors only wrote about what they knew we wouldn't have dragons, spies, or love triangles (or very few of them 😉).

@lowqualityfacts I blame Iron Man

Writing tip: Understanding what your character's arc is will help you enormously. Where do they start and where do you want them to go? What challenges do they face along the way? Map it out.

@DannyB very true

@ouijum That is a good idea. I like it.

Writing Tip: When writing dialogue try not to strive for realistic (ie: how people talk in real life). Instead, aim for authentic (make sure characters speak like the characters should, make sure dialogue is consistent with the world you're building)

Writing Tip: Your writing matters, to you and to others, regardless of what people might say. Your perspective on the world is vitally important to understanding... everything.

Hey, I'm not brave enough for Twitter, but if you are, could you tell PM Trudeau, POTUS, and all of the US and Canadian public servants who communicate to the public on Twitter to open accounts on Mastodon so we can have equal access?

It's not fair that we have to subject ourselves to that Hellscape in order to have the same access to our elected officials and representatives as Twitter users.
THANK YOU.

Writing tip: The blank page is not your enemy, it is the canvas on which you will paint something altogether new; a clean slate where anything is possible. Throw yourself into the blankness without fear or reservation.

Writing tip: Sure, everything has been written, every story told. But not by you.

Your unique take on old stories is what's missing from the world.

A judge used ChatGPT AI chatbot to write a decision in a court case about an autistic child’s healthcare, including to write the arguments about the legal technicalities, as they said deciding takes too long. Jesus fucking christ. https://www.vice.com/en/article/k7bdmv/judge-used-chatgpt-to-make-court-decision

I was shot with a label gun.

Now I’ve got a price on my head.
